Shemot 5786 - Calling Hashem B’Emet: The Meaning of Eheyeh Asher Eheyeh | Rabbi David Rubinoff

When Hashem revealed His Name to Moshe as “Eheyeh Asher Eheyeh,” He wasn’t defining Himself — He was defining a relationship.In this shiur on Parshat Shemot, we explore what it truly means to call out to Hashem b’Emet, and why the way we relate to Hashem determines the way He relates to us.Drawing from the teachings of the Abir Yaakov and the Rambam (on the night of their hilula), the shiur presents two complementary approaches to understanding this Divine Name: • That recognizing Ein Od Milvado — that there is nothing besides Hashem — is what allows a person’s tefillah to be answered in truth • And that Hashem relates to us like a shadow or mirror: the way we act is the way He acts with usIf we forgive, He forgives.If we act with truth, He responds with truth.If we remember Hashem, He “remembers” us.But when a person becomes distracted, unaware, or forgetful of Hashem’s presence, that distance is reflected back. Hashem is called Emet because His response is exact — it would be false for Him to reward awarenesslessness or negative behavior.This shiur explains: • Why constant awareness of Hashem changes everything • How forgetting Hashem creates distance — and remembering Him restores closeness • What Eheyeh Asher Eheyeh really teaches about Divine response • Why you set the relationshipThis is not a shiur about slogans or inspiration.It is about truth, awareness, and responsibility — and how living with Ein Od Milvado reshapes your relationship with Hashem in every moment.
